Seachtain na Gaeilge is a non-profit organisation, which promotes the use of Irish language and culture both at home and abroad within a two-week festival held in March every year.
The festival has built up incredible momentum in recent years, becoming the largest celebration of our native language and culture held in Ireland every year and sweeping other countries up in the whirlwind along the way. With events ranging from simple conversational evenings to street céilís; speed dating to wine tasting it gives everyone a chance to experiment with Irish whether fluent from youth or only dipping their toe in for the first time. Organisations, local councils, schools, libraries, music, sporting & cultural bodies all register their Seachtain na Gaeilge events with us.
Each year Seachtain na Gaeilge releases an excllent collection of Irish language songs by some of the best known singers and musicians in Ireland.
This CD was released as part of the celebrations of Seachtain na Gaeilge 2009. With songs by Paddy Casey, Mick Flannery, Caruso and Duke Special and many others.
